at their hall here on Tuesday evening of last
week, for the benefit OF the Orphans Home

mar the pleasure of the event, and every
thing passed in continued current of hap

The Chatfield Case.

In Department Two of the Superior
Court yesterday morning the matter of the
estate of H. B. Chatfeld, deceased, in
which some evidence was taken several
weeks ago, came up for further hearing on
the application of Richard Chatfield to be
appointed administrator, in place of Thos
Chatfield, appointed few years ago A
L. Hart and J. W. Hughes appeared for
the petitioner, and Beatty & benson and
Grove l.. Johnson for the respondent. On
the side of Richard Chatfeld it is claimed
that his father married a second wife in
California before his first wife, mother of
Richard and his brother Silas, was either
dead or divorced, and that consequently
the second marriage was void, and the chill
dren by it illegitimate, neither they nor
their mother having any claim upon the
estate. Dispositions were read yesterday to
establish the fact of the marriage of H B.
Chatfield and Lucia Perry in 1871, and that
Richard Chatfeld was their son, etc. ]. II.
Wolfe, a resident of Brighton. who was
Justice OF the Peace in 1870 testified to
drawing deed conveying the ranch near
Walsh's station, in 1870 or 1871, from Jar
rett Kibbe to party named Chatfield; he
was quite sure it was H. B. Chatfield. A
document purporting to have been drawn
by him, conveying the property from Kib-
be to Ames" E. Chatfield, and which is
claimed by Thomas Chatfeld to have been
the original deed, his father having it made
out in favor of his mother instead of him
self, but the Justice by mistake in writing,
the name "Ames" instead of Amy" was
introduced. Mr.. Wolfe identified the
writing and signature ashis own, but when
three other documents, purporting to be
made out by him on the same day, were
presented to him for Identification he de-
MED their validity, and declared his opin-
ion that all were forgeries, because he was
confident that he drew up but one paper in
which the Chatfields were interested, on
that day. H. B. Chatfield, it will be re-
membered, disappeared Immediately after
he purchased the property, the price of
which was about $4,000. 1t was subse-
quently sold by Mrs. Amy E. Chatfeld
to Robert Anderson for $4,000.

MARSH AND SEXTON
Released After Five Months Imprison-
,,,a,,t In tho Countr IaiI

Released After Five Months Imprison-
ment in the County Jail.
Several weeks ago Frank Marsh and Blu
ford Sexton were convicted in the Superior
Court on charge of burglariously entering
residence at Folsom with intent to COM
init rape. On the night of the occurrence,
which was in last October, the defendants,
accompanied by one Joseph French, were
drunk and mistook the character of the
house. They entered and took possession
of portion of it, but the ladies-there
happened to be no men present-took
refuge in the front rooms, the locks of
which kept the rascally intruders out The
women were badly frightened, however,
and were compelled to listen to much
filthy language. Finally one of them es-
capped unseen, ran 10 q drug store and gave
an alarm, which resulted in the men being
arrested. On the trial of the case
French was acquitted. The evidence
against the others was not sufficient to
sustain the charge, but the jury, believing
that they deserved punishment, brought in
a verdict of guilty of burglary of the sec
ond degree. Subsequently counsel for the
defense moved for new trial, and the mo-
ton was taken under advisement by Judge
Armstrong, who, after several weeks, called
the matter up yesterday. He intimated
that it would be but right to grant the mo-
ton for a new trial, as the verdict was not
warranted by the evidence, which, how
ever, would sustain charge of aggravated
disturbance of the peace and malicious
mischief. He appreciated the intention of
the jurors to have the defendants pun
ished, but believed that now, they having
been in confinement over five months, it
might be advisable for the District Attorney
to move a dismissal of the action and the
discharge of the prisoners. This was done,
and the District Attorneys motion was
granted by the Court.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
Guiling The Dear Public.

Yesterday afternoon two young men put
in an appearance as street-corner fakirs,
selling iewelry. One located on Fourth
street and the other on Sixth, it being their
desire. evidently, to work the town as rap
idlv as possible The proceedings OF one
answers for both. Standing up in hack
he displayed considerable quantity Of
"iewelry," from sleeve buttons to watches,
and also large roll of greenbacks. He an
nounced that he had five classes OF goods,
and he would commence with the sleeve
buttons. They were really worth 81 each,
but if a man wanted one, and only had so
cents. he would be accommodated-in fact,
if man only wanted to pay nickel, all
right. He proceeded to give his views upon
liberal men and stingy men, and scored
the latter numerically. and with such good
effect that some men paid him
dollar, or even more, for buttons,
and none gave less than % cents.
While giving the buttons out he
turned down the corners of the cards upon
which they were fastened, to Indicate now
much had been paid, one corner Tor each
25 cents When he had sold, perhaps so
worth, he bought them all back, paying the
holders twice as much as they had given
him-the dollar purchasers getting g, and
so on. By that time he was solid )" with
the crowd, and as he advanced to the sale
of "snide" watch chains, lockets, watches,
etc, all the while intimating that he was
going to astonish the purchasers as he had
done during the button SALE he soon dis
posed of a great number of articles and
reaped q rich harvest many of the crowd
believing he was crank, and that they
were getting the best of him very sub
stantially. Finally, when business became
dull and his goods were nearly all gone, he
packed up the remainder, together with his
greenbacks, gave the hackdriver word to
drive on, and left mary members OF the
crowd feeling that they would ike some
one to kick them. County License Col
lector Dolan did good service for the pub
lie by making each Of the fakirs take
out a county license as well as one from the
CITY.

A Bad jump.

An elderly man, who presides over a
boot-black stand IN the passenger depot, got
upon the rear car of theaColfax train.yester-
day noon to ride as far as Twelfth street in
which vicinity he lives. 1t happened that
the steps Of the car were higher than those
he was accustomed to, it being an Eastern
Pullman, and his Jump was not brilliant
success, for a quiet citizen, though it might
do as a beginning for a circus performer.
When his feet touched the ground the lat
ter seemed to be running the other way,
causing his pedals to fly up and his head
to fly down, q fair sumersault resulting.
His astonishment at his own performance,
together with the rapidity of movement
and the jar, bewildered him to such an ex-
tent that he did not get up for minute or
two. when he succeeded in making his way
home, where he stayed for the remainder

baseball Notes.

It is reported that Manager Stafford, of
the Atlas, has made arrangements by
which Will Lovett, an.efficient pitcher and
good general ball-player, now residing at
Atchison. Ks, will arrive in Sacramento in
a few days, to sign with the Atlas for the
season.
There has been talk OF the Atlas going
down to San Francisco to assist in the
opening of the new California League
grounds, in couple of weeks, when the
Haverleys would be their opponents; but
perhaps there will not be any Haverlys
then, as that club has engaged TO play at
Stockton next Sunday
The Bay papers now say that neither Van
Haltren nor Brown, of the GREENWOOD d
Morans, will go East TO play this season.
As Vans mother is in very poor health,
and he does not wish to leave her for a
great length of time, the Pittsburg manager
may refrain from blacklisting him because
of his failure to fill contract.

Clunie Opera House.

"Boccaecio drew a very large house
last night, and an enthusiastic one. Miss
Winston had a part calling for versatile
ability, and she was not found wanting.
She sang to greatly better advantage than
on the first night, testifying to the sympa-
thetic quality of her tones and winning
unanimous approval for her delicate and
charming rendering of the airs of her score,
and her naturalness and ease in dramatic
action Miss Manfred appeared also in
better part and better voice, and received
full need of praise and several floral offer
ings Mr.. Pyke had role demanding but
little, but that little won an encore, and
proved him to be as capable as when here
last summer if he should be called by any
mart in the two remaining operas to demon
strate it. DeLange, the first of the low
comedians, kept the audience in merry
frame OF mind, and was ably seconded by
Alex. Clarke and w. H. West. Miss Man
fred's Love is a Flower" was one of the
gems of the evening. When with Miss
Winston the same song was given in duet,
the applause was enthusiastic to remark
able degree. Tonight The Oath of Love"
will be sung introducing not only Misses
Winston and Manfred, but Miss Tellula
Evans a lady native to California soil.
whose musical abilities are bringing her to
much public attention, and who comes
warmly indorsed. "The Oath of Love- is
the same piece which has created such a
rivalry between two leading theaters in
New York, and which at the Bijou is
known as The Golden Hen" THE Bridal
Trap etc. 1t is by the author of THE
Mascot" "Olivette," etc, and is neat COM
edy throughout, with sparkling music and
topical songs by DeLange. Miss Winston
yesterday received request by letter from
many friends that she would sing The
Last Rose of Summer" during the season,
and it has been arranged by the manage
ment that il may be interjected in the
opera tonight The lady is said to sing it
exceptionally well.
